This is what we would see if the planets were as close as the Moon

By: Mundo.com - 10 March 2015, 13:12

Compartir en Facebook

The universe is an extraordinary site that may offer images of unique beauty. Unfortunately, we are tiny creatures who hardly we can explore all those beauties offered outer space.

However, if the reality was another and we had the opportunity to see up close to the planets of the solar system, as we see every night the Moon, what would it be?

1. The Moon

Ron Miller

The moon, known since ancient times as a symbol for all things related to emotions, cycles, and mystery, reflects sunlight into the night sky. The full moon is thought to be an especially powerful, when emotions and tides run high. The inspirational beauty of the moon is also more evident at this time.

2. Mercury

Ron Miller

This planet inspired philosophers of old to name it as a regent of communication, trade, and friendship. Mercury, nearest planet to the sun, makes a complete orbit approximately ever 88 days. It is only slightly larger than the earth’s moon, but no less magnificent to star and planet watchers.

3.Venus

Ron Miller

Venus is the second planet from the sun, and is thought to be the earth’s twin in size, mass, and density. If you’ve heard Venus referred to as the “morning star” this is because older researchers believed Venus was in fact two stars: one that shone in the morning and one in the evening.

4. Mars

Ron Miller

It’s not difficult to understand why this large and ruddy planet was associated with the deity of war. Mars is the fourth planet from the sun. Mars was even dubbed the fire star by Chinese astronomers who noted the red planet’s vibrant color. This reddish hue is due to it’s iron rich content which lies in dust over the surface.

5. Jupiter

Ron Miller

This gas giant is the largest planet in the solar system. It’s mass is one thousandth of that of the sun. It is mostly made of hydrogen, although other gases make up it’s composition. Turbulent planetary storms have resulted in a giant red spot on the surface of this giant planet. It is orbited by 67 moons.

6. Saturn

Have you ever stopped to think how much time do we spend in social networks? Or how much time of sleep do we lose because we get distracted with them? Well, start counting, you’ll figure out that it is quite A LOT. There are also a lot of bad habits we usually have that can be entirely changed to be more rested and more productive. Here, we are sharing some good tips to have more hours of sleep and feel better.

Blue light

Google.

Back off from blue light. It will distract you and it will be more difficult to sleep and be a rested person, there are some apps that change this light and turns it orange. It is available in iPhones.

Nap time

Google.

It is the same with little kids and adults. You need to be careful with naps! They can be pretty helpful if they are short. 20 minutes is the perfect nap time, it helps your body rest a little bit without stilling night sleep hours. Try it, you'll feel new!

Clock watching

Google.

Watching the clock constantly increases anxiety. You can't stop doing it, I know. However, if you try it, I promise it will help you sleep better. Stop thinking of how many hours of sleep you have left, that won't make them last longer!

Pillows

Google.

You need to have comfortable pillows and it is not only because of your posture. It has definitely some impact in your general well being. It is recommended to use the ones that copy you head shape. You should try them.

Neck position

Google.

It is recommended to be in a neutral neck position. If you are able to sleep with no pillows that is even better. You should just try it ones, and then see what happens. I think it is definitely worth the try.

Allergies

Google.

If you are allergic to your pillows or mattress you will never sleep correctly. You'll keep sneezing or even worst, you won't stop scratching your whole body. Don't hurt yourself and find out if your sleeping tools are the main issue.

Bed usage

Google.

Use your bed only for what it was actually made for. Sex, or sleeping. Don't try to make it your working place because, believe me, that is not going to work at all. Try to find another place for that and leave your bed for the right things!

Sleeping routine

Google.

Try to have a healthy and constant sleeping routine. I know this one is hard but try it also in the weekend. Trust me, it will help your body get used to the sleeping hours you want to sleep regularly.

Caffeine

Google.

Coffee can cheat on you a little bit. It tastes great and it helps you being awake because of it caffeine. But people, let me assure you that it will not help you with your sleeping problems at all. I am a coffee fan and it was one of the most difficult habits to change, however, it is not the end of the world. Try replacing it with tea, but the infusion kind (it doesn't have any caffeine)

Exercise

Google.

Exercising will definitely help you with your sleeping issues. You arrive home a lot more relaxed so the sleeping experience is a lot more satisfying. You go out, do some exercise and then come back to sleep after you take a hot bath. The best feeling in the world.

Snacks

Google.

Other difficult task but well, here I go. Try to eat things that are easy to digest at night. If you often eat fried stuff or heavy things, this will bother your sleeping affecting your general humor too. Try it, it is worth it.

Alcohol

Google.

This also disturbs your sleeping time. It may give you headaches and also it can make you wake up several times through the night. That is completely negativa as it ruins your cycle. You sometimes can't sleep again after waking up which makes it even worst.

Prevent bathroom interruptions

Google.

Prevent waking up for bathroom needs! Try to not drink a lot of liquid things before bed time and you'll stop your body from waking up several times to go to the bathroom. It is perfect to drink a lot of water but avoid drinking it before going to bed.

Lights

Google.

Turn down the lights! The different levels of light can have a positive or negative effect in your sleeping habits. This has to do with your brain associating it with different states of mind.

Noise

Google.

Try to sleep in a quiet environment. If it is hot, and you have a fan turned on, try to put something so that the noise does not disturb your sleeping. Those things can be really bothering, clocks that make that tick tack noise have the same negative effect.

Tobacco

Google.

It is a stimulant and it affects negatively in your sleeping habits. Try to avoid smoking at night or maybe smoking a little bit less at night, that will also help you.

Pets in bed

Google.

Pets can bother a little bit. Even though you love them and it is really cute to sleep with them. They move quite a lot and make noises. This can wake you up which will not help you at all the next day.

Routine

Google.

Try to have the most relaxing night routine! Take a hot bath and try to sleep early. Don't work or do things that can stress you out. It is not worthy and you will be more tired.

Sleeping pills

Google.

Try to use sleeping pills with moderation. They are not good for your health unless you have a doctor's prescription. You must consult the doctor before taking them. Some of them are quiet strong.

See a doctor

Google.

Go visit your doctor if you have chronic sleeping problems. Your doctor knows you more than anyone and will tell you the exact problems and how to go on and solve your problem.
